Properties
Description
FA-PEG-mannose, also called mannose-PEG-folic acid, is a research-grade reagent formed by grafting mannose onto a 1 kDa PEG backbone with a folic acid unit. This construct integrates mannose's binding, PEG's solubility, and folic acid's functionality.
Molecular Weight
PEG: 1 kDa
Form
Solid or viscous liquid
Impurities
No visible impurities to the naked eye.
Solubility
This product is soluble in most organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, DMSO, and THF, and exhibits excellent solubility in water.
Applications
Mannose-PEG-folic acid can be used to synthesize star-shaped polymers via bromide-mediated core-first polymerization.
